<p>I got Dragon Speech a few years ago as a gift. (I might even have the exe backed up someplace still lol) I know you are asking about MAC o/s, but just in case you were interested in a personal review.</p><p>I had at the time Windows 7 (tail end of 7 when everyone was upgrading to 10). It did not work as well as what I thought it would after reviewing their website and instructions. The concept is fantastic and I was excited. After a few tries, I gave up. I spent to much time trying to get it to work properly. Maybe it is better now?</p>

Thanks Gloria, seemingly it (Dragon) works great for my friend (on his Windows laptop). I contacted a reseller and got provided a (5 times startup) trial for Dragon version 16. I have yet to install it (on my Mac -silicon- setup with Windows running in Parallels). Given the 5 times (startup) limit, I will wait until we next meet so I can have my friend "take the Dragon for a virtual spin" on my Mac. Best, Mark
